Statement Yehan was born in Shanghai, China in 1959. He has been naturalized
Canadian since 1995. His work has been collected all over the world for many
years.
To him, art is a partnership between design
and color. He uses these aspects to create images in which the process takes
precedent. Nothing is more exhilarating than spreading paint over the canvas
with large, expressive strokes. He combines an abstract, decorative style with
contemporary influences. His
work is a process of creation as well as investigation. Nothing is hide on the
canvas, but to express the nature of beauty and to reveal the discoveries made
during his investigations. He works with layers of colors, thickened or
scumbled over a textured surface. Traces are left by assorted mark-makers via
straight lines and random structures. Yet it is the artist's eye, which seeks
to prevail - telling the hand to add that last brush stroke which makes it all
happen.
He is inspired by many influential artists
include particularly Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky. Both artists used energy
in ways to change how we look at art. As Yehan's mature, more and more of his
work reflect his personal experience. From that experience he see himself
striving to achieve his own sense of expression.
